John Saxby bears the heavy burden of running his family's farm now that his father Martin is partially paralysed following a stroke. Adding to his woes, John is wrestling with his sexuality and he engages in sexual encounters with local men. As the lambing season approaches, Martin hires a Romanian immigrant worker, Gheorghe Ionescu, to help John repair damage to a stone wall. The two men bed down in an old outhouse and sparks of passion fly. John and Gheorghe seek comfort in each other's arms.
